Okay. Cussing. What is the point?!
Let’s just go through this for a moment. When someone cusses, it is generally to express irritation, full-out anger, or appreciation for something remarkable. Now, here’s the thing, swearing under your breath when you’re angry is not going to make you feel better, it only serves to inform others of your mood and- possibly- fuel your flame of frustration.
Question! Why would you say something that just encourages a negative mood? Why not say something totally ridiculous instead to make you laugh?
When I was in sixth grade, my phrase was “Stinky cheese” and every time I said it my parents laughed at me, which made me laugh as well and the other day I said “Son of a Nutcracker!” to a friend (That’s from the movie Elf, I didn’t come up with it) and she told me “that made my life “.
So please just simply say funny things instead of cussing or using boring substitutes for swearing. Here are some really random suggestions.
1) Banana couplings!
2) Sliced fruit!
3) Oh, clog it all.
4) Flaming fudge!
5) Gulping Gargoyles! (That is from Harry Potter J)
6) For the love of leaping lizards!
7) Of all the salmon shenanigans
8) Oh My-cheal Buble
9) For the sake of all sporks!
10 ) Tap dancing!
11 )Always feel free to take your least favorite food/color/anything to use.
